CHEsTERFIELDIAN phrase has Il
poor show when the burning of ones
house is endorsed by a verdict ac-
quitting the man who said he
did the deed. Our friend of the
Cumberland independent, quoted
elsewhere, thinks, doubtless, and
very fairly, that the people are guilty,
inasmuch as William Williams was
declared not guilty. 1t would have
us, therefore, approach the bench
and jury on all fours and whisper
disagreement with regrets" and ask
pardon for differing with them.
But we do not believe there IS an
ounce Of such manhood in Frostburg.
IN the entire list Of the fortunes
of labor, and these have not been a
few, we have never known an in
stance before the one furnished by
the papers and correspondents of this
region. where the men gossiped
about an unsolicited advance in
wages in Il tone Of unwelcome. 1t
would seem that some folks would
rather fight and get nothing than
make Il good living by keeping the
peace.

out coal from New Hope average at
least 5000 daily. The loss, therefore,
to those men resulting from last
weeks stoppage of $24 days was $3.50.
This is certainly matter worth
serious study. In effect the practice
is for the time being only one degree
below a strike.

Hoieis.-The Maltbv House, Balti-
more, always a fine hotel, is now better
than ever. Tie landlord, Col George P.
Mott, the clever clerks and efficient at
tendants unite to make one feel at home,
and the fare is superb. These reasons
incline us to recommend the Maltby to
all those of our readers visiting Balti-
more as one among the very best
hotel resorts in the city.
The traveller who strikes Piedmont,

feelings of the miners it is the truth and per-
sons, papers and things who do not like it
had better not read it. 1t must not be under
stood that the miners want to strike; far from
it.
To say nothing further of the origin
of the bugaboo the quotation above is
a sample of the very sort of talk which
generally brings us just what we say
we wont have.
So far as the JOURNAL is concerned
1t cares nothing about the category in
which it is reckoned, except to know
the author and proprietor of the cate-x
CORY. BY some it prefers to be cal
person, by others a paper, by
thing, by others nothing.
But to that large and growing
who regard its suggestions at this
ture as in the line of wisdom and
policy-public and private, we W
announce the supreme fact that the
young roosters who are growing after
the fashion set in the above quotation
are, in eloquent barnyard parlance,
"electioneering for lickin'."
And whether the principle which
underlies the blacklist be right or
wrong it is certain that it exists and will
remain eoeval with the perpetuity of
property rights.
That list is never made up after
strike, as many suppose, but before
and during the suspension. AS many
others imagine, also, that it is the
company which makes the list it is but
simply just to say that this is an error.
That list is formulated by the extreme
element among those whom the Recie,o
says 'dismisses with disdain," etc., and
some Of them are evidently at work on
their own destruction now.
But there will be no blacklist this
time to cry over, for there will not be
enough Of one to make strike.
If list should be "precipitated''
depend upon it, men and brethren,
while it may be short one way it will be
long as eternity the other.

OUR neighbor, the Frostburg JOUR
NAL, was filled last week with nettles,
which it placed under the court be-
cause of the result in the Williams
trial. Brother Oder's nettles were
singing. but not nice.-Cumberland
independent.
1t is to be supposed, then that it
was real 'nice" to turn William Will
liams loose.
And presumed, also, that-but we
refrain because we do not know the
standard of nicely by which the m
dependent measures.
In our own simple, inartifcial
way we have reckoned this a case of
eye for eye and tooth for tooth. If
the independent will believe it, we
tried our best to keep from saying
that the acquittal of William Will
liams was not only the worst but the
most vulgar Of judicial miscarriages
occurring within our memory.
And we succeeded.

tempted to bring Mr.. Shipman to account
for making such personal remarks. But
that worthy divine stuck to his text and said
all persons the shoe fit could wear it. etc.
Mr.. Shlpman thinks strange of the objec-
ton to his Sermon now from the fact that
he was complimented for making the same
sermon in 1884 and by the same person that
objected to it last Sunday. Mr.. Shipman
thinks the change of opinions now and then,
is on account of whose OK was gored on both
occasions.
Rev. V. F. Schmitt, now pastor of
st. Joseph's church, Washington, D.
c., found his duties there too numerous
and onerous to discharge unaided. He
has now an assistant, Rev. Father
Donahue, a young man of force,
energy and eloquence. Preparations
for a fair, to begin Easter Monday
night and continue nine days for the
benefit of the church, are going on
under the supervision of these gentle
men, and it may well be supposed
they have their hands full in addition
to their regular duties.
Rev. C. ID. Hoover, of Smithsburg,
Md, has lately preached in the English
Lutheran church Rev. Duncan KEN
merer, of Saltsbuag, Pa, will preach
tomorrow and perhaps others will
follow-all candidates for the passionate
made vacant by the resignation of Rev.
w. A. Shipman. The last named will
occupy the pulpit on the Goth and 9th
insts., and on the 9th of March assume
the duties of his new charge at Hol-
lidaysburg, Pa.

Deaths.-The early issue of the
JOURNAL last week prevented more
than passing notice of the deaths Of
the week, nearly all of which We're of
unusual character.
Conrad Hartman was ~ years and
10 months old, and had been for a
long while prominent in our mercan-
tile circle. On Tuesday night, 1st
inst, he complained of pains in the
region of his heart and in his head.
Mrs. Hartman summoned medical at
tendance and remedies were applied.
Next morning Mrs. Hartman was
again alarmed by heavy, hard breath
ing, and she endeavored to arouse
him, but in vain practically he had
already passed beyond the boundary
of life. A few minutes before s p. m.
he ceased to breathe. Paralysis of
the brain had set in during the pre-
ceding night and he never regained
consciousness. His mother, brothers,
sisters, wife and children were present
when he died. The funeral was large
ly attended at 2 p. m. Saturday. AS
a mark of respect the stores were
closed, and at the house many rich
floral offerings attested the esteem of
friends and affection of kindred. Rev.
w. A. ShiIman held brief services
both at the residence and grave, and
Messrs. Marx Wlneland, John Cham
bers. A. E. Hitchins, Walter Edwards
and Joseph Jandorf were the pail
bearers. Interment in Allegany Gem
etery.
The funeral of William R. Cruise,
the young miner killed in New Hope,
took place in St. Michael's church
Sunday afternoon. Rev. D. c. De-
Wulf officiated, and the remains in
TERED in the new Catholic cemetery.
A long procession of his brother
miners was an imposing feature of the
c0rtege.
Mrs. Mary NJ. Harbel, of this place,
fell on the ice Thursday morning of
last week and died during the night
of same day. She was over 70 years
Of age. Her head struck the ice and
death ensued from concussion of the
brain. The funeral took place at the
Reformed church, Rev. G. A. Schwedes
officiating, and the remains inferred
in Allcgany cemetery Sunday after
noon. Deceased was the mother of
Lewis Harbel, of this place.

worked themselves into white heat
over reported advance of $40 per
c-at.," instead of 10 cents per ton as
expected, we want to show by italics
where that rumor started. A dispatch
